As Salaamu 'alaykum and peace to all,
Do You Love Inspirational and Motivational Quotes Too?
That day, I was with some friends, hanging out. Then, suddenly, one of them said to me- you know Sis, I have always wanted to ask you this one question.
'What is it? Ask me now!' I said with a smile.
'Well, I am a big fan of quotes and proverbs too. I mean, I read them a lot. But, whenever I read your stories, you seemed to always have quotes that I have never read before. Where did you get them?' she asked.
'Ohhh... well, I do have a huge collection of them. I simply keep the ones I read in a database. It took a while, but, it is worth the effort. You should start one too. And then, share it with others!' I told her.
'I wish you have a way to share more of your quotes than the ones you have in your stories!' she answered me.
Immediately, I remembered what Cicero once said,
Nobody can give you wiser advice than yourself.
Opppss! So true, dont you think?
Yes, I should heed my own advice. I should share more of my quotes collection with others!
So, needless to say, that conversation had actually haunted me for sometime, not in the spooky kind of way, but, in a way that had forced me to ask myself this very important question
What can i do to share more of the inspirational, funny, witty, mind-boggling quotes and stories that i have collected over these years?
And more than that, I remembered what our beloved Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) had said once,
No one of you will attain (perfect) faith until he loves for his brother what he loves for himself (Al - Bukhari and Muslim)
Wow, I know at least one of my friends who confessed that she loves quotes, right? So, if I can share my quotes collections with her, and because I love quotes and she loves quotes too, dont I think that Allah has given me a way to give someone else something they love as how i gave myself something I love?
However, deep in my heart, I know there are if not thousands or hundreds of thousands, it could be millions of people like me and my friend too, who loves quotes, dont you think? I bet (not literally!), you are one of them, right?
Did I see heads nodding? Yes? SubhanAllaah!! This is so exciting, you agree?
And the best part of all, not only that I could share, but, it also means that we all would be able to work our way towards getting stronger faith!
What do you think my brothers and sisters? Isn't this among the easiest way to make us all be stronger in faith?
Absolutely!
And less than a month later, I found just the way to do it!
Alhamdulillaah, yes, i did. Thanks to another friend of mine, who directed me to a new site called ning.com. It was like an answer to my prayer, subhanAllah!
So, that was what i have been up to lately, in between my book launch, writing etc. I was beefing up my latest website which i called LifeStoryteller.ning.com
